MARINFORSK-Marine ressurser og miljø

JPI Oceans - Mikroplast - BASEMAN - NIVA - Defining the baselines and standards for microplastics analyses in European waters

Siden midten av forrige århundre har en raskt økende global produksjon av plast vært ledsaget av en opphopning av plastavfall i miljøet. Plasten spres ved hjelp av strøm og vind, brytes ned og blir fragmentert over tid, men forsvinner ikke. Sammen med små plastpartikler som stammer fra forbruksp...
